In this paper, the nonlinear transient thermal stress analysis is conducted for temperature-dependent hollow cylinders subjected to a decaying-with-time thermal field. By the finite element method, the highly nonlinear governing equations are solved. The time histories of temperature, displacement, and stress due to the decaying-with-time thermal load are computed. A sensitivity analysis includes the effects of exponent of the decayed heat flux and temperature-dependency of density and material properties is carried out. Numerical results show some interesting characteristics of the thermoelastic behaviors of the hollow cylinders studied. In particular, the effect of temperature-dependency of the material properties on the thermoelastic parameters was demonstrated to be significant.

Use of correct values of material properties is important in structural analysis. When incorrect values are used in the analysis, engineers may end up with misleading conclusions. The magnitudes of elastic modulus and strength are usually measured from experiments at room temperature. When these values are used in the thermal stress analysis of structures, the results may not be reliable because the magnitudes of elastic modulus and strength depend on temperature. The temperature distribution of HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) system was analyzed. The material properties were measured using MTS810 material test system and MTS 651 environmental chamber at different levels of temperature. They were used in the thermal stress analysis of HVAC system. It was found that the results of thermal stress analysis were significantly different from the results using material properties which were measured from experiments at room temperature.

The work described here is part of a larger experimental and theoretical program directed at obtaining a better understanding of the mechanics of flame bending. A capability for predicting the transient behavior of a line heated plate during heating and cooling is presented. Material properties are temperature dependent. Elastic-plastic stress-strain relations are used. Material unloading from the plastic range is treated. Deformations of a plate are predicted at various times during heating and cooling and compared with experimental results. The analysis is also carried out for consecutive heating and cooling cycles.
